Hello there. Is it somehow
possible to include a non-wx-GUI-Application
into a wx-application? I
would like to place into a wx.Panel a widget
from a different GUI (VB,
Progress…).

Hello Mark,
I don't think, it is.
What widget are you referring to?
It is probable, that such a widget exist for
wxPython or wxWidget.
In the second case, you could wrap it with SWIG.
But for that case, it is best to ask another one..

It depends on the type of application you have. If you just have the EXE file, you can (of course) call it from within your Python source code, but that will open a separate window, and your ability to control the application is therefore subsequently limited. On the other hand, if you can create an ActiveX control from your application (this is e.g. very easy with Visual Basic) you can use it like any other wxWidgets control within your own app. However, depending on the application, this may require you to write a significant amount of code (and of course you need the source code for the app in the first place).
